After more than a decade of active research on Quality of Service in IP networks and the
Internet, the majority of IP traffic relies on the conventional best-effort IP service model …

This paper establishes a link between two principal tools for the analysis of network traffic,
namely, effective bandwidth and network calculus. It is shown that a general version of …

In this article we describe recent work on buffer sizing for core Internet routers. This work
suggests that the widely-used rule of thumb leads to buffers which are much larger than they …

Queueing analysis is a vital tool used in the evaluation of system performance. Applications
of queueing analysis cover a wide spectrum from bank automated teller machines to …

Providing end-to-end quality of service (QoS) support is essential for video delivery over the
next-generation wireless Internet. We address several key elements in the end-to-end QoS …

Conventional approaches to solving this problem consider the existing best-effort class as …

Service level agreements (SLAs), or contracts, have an important role in web services. They
define the obligations and rights between the provider of a web service and its client, about …

The network calculus offers an elegant framework for determining worst-case bounds on
